This is awesome news...and Kurt truly deserves to be in there...

Its True, Its True, Its True!!!

Some of my all time favorite matches were Angle vs. Benoit...
and I remember the love triangle with Triple H and Stephanie
which provided some seriously funny moments and intense
matches.

Another good question is who will induct Kurt into the HoF? Brock Lesnar would be an interesting choice cuz they had a great rivalry and great matches and they respect the hell out of each other. But i dont see Brock making a big speech like that. I think Shane McMahon would be a fine possible choice.

His rivalry with Eddie Guerrero was awesome. Both extremely talented in the ring and could tell a good story too.

Stone Cold could induct him, the whole milk truck thing and winning his first title off of Stone Cold and all.

Surprise entrance RR, retirmnt match WM, inducted into HoF?

I missed his entiire WWE run, just made it past Survivor Series 1999 (Steph asked HHH for a divorce) and he has just turned up. His music works as heel and face though and you could interpret it both ways.

Kurt has legitimate problems with walking. No way should he be actively wrestling.
